House Rejects Crypto Bills 196-222
**Regulatory Freeze, Not Thaw**
By sinking the rule vote, the House has pushed any federal crypto statute well past the summer. The Senate’s GENIUS Act—already facing a **new Democratic revolt** over AML, national-security and consumer-protection language —now has no House companion to reconcile with, so momentum stalls. **Result**: months of continued **regulatory fragmentation**; firms must still navigate conflicting SEC, CFTC and state blueprints .
**Market Implications**
- **Stablecoin issuers** (Circle, Tether) lose the certainty needed for bank partnerships and Treasury-backstop plans; premium for off-shore dollar-pegged coins may widen.
- **Tax-revenue risk**: Treasury’s delayed crypto-broker reporting rule already jeopardises “billions” in collections; the legislative void keeps the loophole open .
- **Volatility & Scams**: With no new guardrails, a **Wild-West perception** persists; retail investors face heightened fraud risk and exchanges could see outflows if hacks spike .
**Geopolitical Angle**
Without a U.S. framework, dollar-linked stablecoins cede ground to **foreign digital-currency initiatives**—including potential euro or yuan-pegged coins—eroding USD dominance in global payments .

Reminder:
Not a financial advise. its just a raw analysis on 4H timeframe
⚠️ Final Thoughts
This is a pullback in a bullish trend, unless $113K is lost with high volume.
Volume will be key—watch for confirmation either via bounce or breakdown.
Upcoming macroeconomic events (CPI/FED/PPI) could inject volatility, so prepare for both sides.

After the CPI print, watch the **next wave of inflation and growth signals** to gauge whether today’s surprise is a blip or a trend. Key markers:
- **Producer Price Index (PPI)** – due within 48 h, shows whether producers are still passing through higher costs; a hot PPI would cement the “sticky-inflation” narrative .
- **Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index (PCE)** – the Fed’s preferred gauge later this month; any upward revision could delay rate cuts .
- **Retail Sales & Durable Goods Orders** (mid-month) – if consumers keep spending despite gloomy sentiment, the Fed has room to stay restrictive .
- **Labor data** – next Friday’s non-farm payrolls and unemployment claims will reveal whether tariff-related layoffs are spreading .
- **Fedspeak & minutes** – every official comment will be parsed for a shift in reaction function; markets will move on even subtle language tweaks .
Together, these releases will decide whether today’s CPI spike becomes a policy inflection point or a data-point footnote.

June U.S. CPI prints at 8:30 a.m. ET on 15 July. Markets expect headline YoY 2.6 % (vs 2.4 % in May) and core MoM 0.3 % (vs 0.1 %). Because consensus is already tilted toward a rebound, a mere in-line print could feel like relief and lift stocks and bonds, while a 0.4 %+ core surprise would revive hawkish bets and send the dollar and yields higher. History shows the first price spike often reverses within 30 minutes unless the data are a genuine outlier.#CPIWatch #USCryptoWeek #CPIWatch

@Huma Finance 🟣 Huma Finance: Turning Future Paychecks into Spendable Cash
Imagine getting paid the moment you finish a shift instead of waiting two weeks for payroll. That’s the promise of Huma Finance, a decentralized lending protocol built on the Polygon and Solana blockchains. Instead of selling equity or taking high-interest payday loans, workers can tap a credit line collateralized by their pending wages or freelance invoices. The magic happens via “income-based underwriting”: Huma plugs into payroll APIs or on-chain work records (e.g., DeFi bounties, creator payouts) to estimate how much someone will earn, then issues stablecoin advances that are repaid automatically when the paycheck arrives. Liquidity comes from yield-seeking lenders who deposit funds into liquidity pools and earn interest plus Huma’s governance token rewards. Since launching its closed beta in 2023, the platform has processed over $10 million in salary advances for gig-economy drivers, remote developers, and even DAO contributors—proving that real-world cash-flow data can be just as powerful as traditional credit scores.

Crypto 2025: Trade Wars, ETFs & Tokenized Skyscrapers—Navigating the $200 k Bitcoin Chase”
# 🗞️ Crypto Pulse Check – Mid-July 2025
*“Tariffs, Trump, and tokenized skyscrapers”*
1️⃣ Tariff tantrums vs. ETF tailwinds
The first half of 2025 has been a tug-of-war.
- **Q1 dip**: fresh U.S. trade tariffs sparked a classic risk-off wave, yanking BTC from a December 2024 peak of **$106 k** down into the low-$90 ks .
- **Q2 snap-back**: spot-Bitcoin ETFs soaked up every dip—BlackRock’s IBIT alone crossed **$15 B** in AUM—pushing BTC to a fresh **$111 k** record in June .
- **Consensus target**: 68 % of crypto holders now expect **$200 k BTC by December**; even 25 % of *non-holders* agree .
2️⃣ Policy whiplash in Washington
President Trump’s second term is a paradox:
- **Pro-crypto headline**: a **Crypto Task Force** and the **Strategic Bitcoin Reserve** (yes, the White House is stacking sats) .
- **Trade friction**: new tariffs keep risk sentiment brittle—every tariff headline still knocks 5-7 % off BTC within hours .
- **Accounting relief**: the **GENIUS Act** (stable-coin bill) and the repeal of **SAB-121** are making bank custody and tokenized treasuries suddenly palatable for Fortune-500 CFOs .
3️⃣ Where the smart money is moving
Venture capital is **back**—but pickier:
- **$4.9 B** poured into crypto start-ups in Q1 2025, the highest in two years, with Binance grabbing the single largest check ($2 B) .
- The focus shifted to **real-world assets** (RWAs): fractional real-estate tokens, on-chain T-bills, and AI-data marketplaces .
- **AI-crypto mergers**: the **ASI token** (SingularityNET + Fetch.ai + Ocean) is now a top-20 asset, up 240 % YTD on AI-narrative hype .
4️⃣ Stablecoins: the quiet $8 T gorilla
- Visa reports **1 B annual on-chain transactions**, totaling **$8 T** in transfer value—more than Mastercard + Amex combined .
- Singapore just piloted **stablecoin-based cross-border trade**; Latin America is using USDC to hedge inflation .
- **Regulatory clarity** (GENIUS Act) is expected to green-light bank-issued stablecoins by Q4, shrinking the moat for legacy remittance giants.
5️⃣ What to watch next
| Catalyst | Consensus Probability | Potential Impact
| Solana & XRP spot-ETF approvals | 65 % by October | SOL to $250, XRP to $1.50 |
| Fed rate cut amid tariff slowdown | 50 % in September | Risk-on tailwind |
| MiCA (EU) full enforcement | 100 % by year-end | Capital flight to compliant exchanges |
| AI-crypto mega-IPO (Render or ASI) | 40 % | Narrative extension
🔮 One-sentence takeaway
**Tariffs create noise, ETFs absorb it, RWAs build the bridge to Wall Street, and stablecoins are already the rails—welcome to the choppy but maturing bull of 2025.**
